Questions

What BPM is Tragedy?

130 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. The room plays it at any tempo from a quarter of that up to the written one, against the record where the record can follow.

Is Tragedy hard to play on drums?

68 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 55 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

325 bars, about 10:49 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 116 exercises over 34 sittings, about 26 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

How many fills are in Tragedy?

34 fills to learn, played 59 times: bars 9, 17, 24, 35, 37, 41 and 53 more.
